Hannah rests with the photo of the surgical team wearing their fashionable hats at the foot of her bed.
In a moment of consciousness, Hannah manages a Popsicle (her big meal of the day). Shortly after this, it was right back to sleep.
"We're officially related," Dr. Shin told Hannah. "When I was stitching you up, the needle slipped and went right into my finger. Sharing blood makes you related I'm pretty sure." With Dr. Shin having daughters, one that is Hannah's age, I'm sure adding one more won't be a stretch.
Dr. Shin stopped by this morning and gave us the all clear if Hannah's pain management goes well today. IF not, then we will be in the hospital until tomorrow. The focus for today is to get her fingers bending twice an hour. The tendon that is being moved happens to slide right over the area that was operated on and is very painful. The strange thing is that you would think the pain would be in the wrist area, but it hurts her more closer to the elbow. If this were Vegas, my bet would be on getting out of the hospital tomorrow.
Thanks for all the prayers.
